Patent CA-2295821-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LONSBERRY GLENN R
IPC: H01M50/559
Filed: 1998-07-23
Abstract: L'invention concerne une cellule électrochimique qui comporte un bac présentant une extrémité ouverte et une extrémité fermée, une borne de contact se trouvant à l'extrémité fermée. La borne ne recouvre qu'une petite partie de l'extrémité fermée du bac. Le reste de l'extrémité du bac peut être recouvert d'une étiquette. Par l'utilisation d'une borne de contact plus petite, l'espace vide (19) (Figures 1, 2) qui se trouve entre le couvercle positif (17) et l'extrémité fermée (14) du bac (15) et qui sert à absorber la dilatation de la cellule, est sensiblement éliminé, de manière que la longueur du bac puisse être augmentée sans dépasser les normes établies pour la longueur totale d'une cellule, tout en permettant au bac de contenir davantage d'ingrédients actifs, ce qui augmente la durée de vie de la cellule électrochimique.

Abstract: Modules that can be impinged upon by compressed air are arranged in front of and behind a box-shaped spar (1), whereby said modules have an airtight top skin and an airtight bottom skin and plates (7) which can transmit thrust are disposed therebetween. Each plate (7) has a console on each side. Said console extends along the entire length of the wing profile. One to two flexible tubes (9) that are airtight and only slightly extensible are inserted between two such consoles. When the tubes are subjected to pressure, they cause the plates (9) to move substantially parallel to each other and provide the wing with the desired camber. The aerodynamic profile is defined by rigid sheeting (10) whereby said sheeting (10) is secured to the top skin, bottom skin (5) and the sheet in an articulated manner by the plates (11) that are provided with. hinges (14). The on-flow edge (3) of the wing has two airtight and only slightly extensible flexible tubes (15,16) which, when inflated in an appropriate manner, provide the on-flow edge (3) with the required shape. The off-flow edge (4) is open.

Patent CA-2314274-A1 (CA)
Title: High temperature extraction of spices and herbs
Inventor: TODD GEORGE N
IPC: A23L19/00
Filed: 1998-12-11
Abstract: Principal components of herb or spice plant materials are simultaneously extracted and concentrated in at least one high temperature and pressure mechanical pressing step. The extract may be hydrated and then centrifuged to remove fine particulate solids and gums. A  solution having several times the concentration of the pigments and flavor and aroma components of the starting raw material is obtained.  The residual press solids and extract have significantly reduced bacterial counts as a result of the temperatures, high pressure, and high shear utilized, as well as the low moisture levels employed, thus producing not only a food grade extract but also a food grade residual solid having low bacterial counts and predictable, standardized levels of the principal components of interest. Additionally, edible antioxidants can be included in the process to enhance the stability of both the extract and the residual solids. The residual solids are ruptured in the process, giving rise to a quick-release and enhanced effect, and thus greater use effectiveness, when the herb or spice solids are used in foods or beverages.

Inventor: VENEKLASEN LEE H
IPC: H01J3/02
Filed: 2000-11-09
Abstract: Conventional electron guns in electron beam columns utilize a thermionic triode configuration. A tetrode (four electrode) gun is described which allows the adjustment of both variable high brightness and illumination uniformity in the profile of the electron beam. This is achieved by adding an electrostatic focusing electrode between the cathode and the anode within the electron gun. The focusing electrode is positively biased to a few keV and allows the image of the cathode to be focused at infinity. The addition of a focusing electrode enables both variable brightness and illumination uniformity by adjustment of the bias of a grid which is mounted below the cathode to maintain constant emission. while adjusting the bias of the focusing electrode to obtain the optimal beam cross-sectional uniformity.
